How To Crochet A Simple Center

Piece
By: Michael Sellick, The Crochet
Crowd
Learn how to crochet a simple center
piece for the holidays. Only one skein
of yarn is used for this free crochet
pattern. To accompany this pattern
there are two fabulous videos.
Materials:
Bernat Softee Chunky 1 Skein

Size J Hook, or 6.0 mm
Instructions:
Create Slip Knot and Chain 4. Slip
hook through the starting chain, then
slip stitch to form a ring.
Chain 3, then Double Crochet 11
Times around the ring. Slip stitch the
final to the top of the chain 3.
Chain 3, then Put 1 Double Crochet
where you began the chain up, then
place 2 Double Crochet into each
stitch around the circle. Slip Stitch at
the end. This will double your size.

Chain 3, then Put 1 Double Crochet
into the next stitch, then *put 2
Double Crochet into the next stitch,
then place 1 Double Crochet into the
next stitch and repeat from * all the
way around, slip stitch at the end. In
the tutorial Mikey says this is the 1 - 2
Ratio.
Chain 3, then Put 1 Double crochet
into the next 2 stitches, then put 2
Double Crochet into the next stitch,
then place 1 Double Crochet into the
next 2 stitches, repeat from * all the
way around. Slip stitch at the end. In
tutorials this is the 2 - 2 Ratio.
Chain 3, Mikey demonstrates going
behind the stitches on the 3rd string. It
creates an obvious pattern line. See
video if confused by this. *Put 1
Double Crochet into the next 3 strings
behind the stitches, then put 2 Double
Crochet into the next string repeat
from *. Slip stitch at the end, Mikey
refers to this as the 3 - 2 Ratio.
Chain 3, Create a ruffle. Place 3
Double Crochet into each stitch on the
circle. Place the stitches as normal.
Slip stitch at the end.
Chain 1, then *chain 3, place 1 Single
Crochet into the very next stitch and
repeat from *. This makes the edges
look random and no so uniform. Slip
stitch at the end.
Cast off using a weaving technique.
